Kumail Nanjiani<\/strong> is Eternal<\/em>-ly grateful…for pizza!<\/p>\n

The 41-year-old Silicon Valley<\/em> alum made headlines in December when he posted a shirtless pic of himself looking ripped<\/a> for the first time\u2014marking his body transformation for Marvel’s upcoming superhero movie The Eternals<\/em>. Now, after endless hardcore workouts and extreme dieting, this thirst trap is hungry<\/em>.<\/p>\n

“You work out every day and you sort of learn to enjoy it. But the diet is the hardest thing,” Nanjiani said on Jimmy Kimmel Live!<\/em> on Wednesday. “I have not had pizza or a donut in over a year! I have had no refined sugar in a year. I’ve had almost no carbs at all.”<\/p>\n

“You know what my snack is? I get a bag or sugar snap peas and I eat them!” he continued. “That’s what I’ve been doing. At night, I’m like, ‘I’m a little hungry. I’m gonna treat myself. Crunch, crunch.'”<\/p>\n

Kimmel then had several large hanging food scales containing delicious-looking cakes and pastries lowered from the ceiling.<\/p>\n

“Are you serious? Are you joking? Oh my God!” Nanjiani exclaimed.<\/p>\n

“All for you,” Jimmy Kimmel<\/a><\/strong> said.<\/p>\n

“This is for me? For me, Kumail? I can have it? Are you serious?” the actor said.<\/p>\n

Kimmel’s sidekick Guillermo Rodriguez <\/strong>then stepped out onstage and brought Nanjiani a box of pizza.<\/p>\n

“I’m literally gonna cry right now. I’m not joking,” Nanjiani said, before taking a bite and saying, “Oh my God. I’m shaking. Hey, pizza’s really good!”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

He later sampled a slice of berry cheesecake and a mini chocolate-covered cream pie.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
